Stephen Foster's songwriting style influenced John Fogerty's personality and music.

So that lilt, that sort of kind of songwriting, he's also very corny. I mean, that voice, that personality certainly became, it got contributed, it got lent to me through the records, the recordings, as Stephen didn't make any records, as far as I know. And those songs just sort of got infiltrated into my personality. I mean, my mom, put it this way, I think I even talked it over with mom. I feel like Stephen Foster could have written Proud Mary. It seems like that territory.
